Lovely! I'll have my IC post tonight or if not, then tomorrow.

WOOHOO! So excited for evil Russian babushkas! And Scoundrel, were you still interested in doing any kind of coordination before we start?
Yes..yes! I'm still interested and I apologize if I haven't came back to you at once. School or it didn't happen. And not only that, my internet died a day after, realizing that the modem actually broke for reasons my technologically-illiterate mind couldn't comprehend. Good thing our ISP provided us with a replacement immediately. I'm quite glad the IC haven't started yet, whew!
Also yes, a PM will be coming to you shortly ;)
Igraine said
And if you Scoundrel, would like Vasily to, say, have apprenticed or some such under Tristen's father, or the like? Why not again?
I like this idea! I'd say, let's make this possible. I'll PM you with an idea or a few details on how their past interactions could work once I come up with one or if you could, then feel free to drop me a PM. :D

Very nice, I like it. However there is one problem, one of the . Is there another role you could cast the father in? Plus names for relatives are helpful since everyone will know each other.
I changed it to woodworker, if that's convenient enough. I felt like having a blacksmith as an NPC father was becoming a bit generic for my taste but either way, this is fiction. ;)
Looks like everyone--or mostly everyone--are closely related in some sorts. 
But anyway, here's my CS. Hoping to have a baker boy spark some joy. (hey that rhymed!)
__________________________________________________________________________
Name: Tristen Yalik
Age: 19
Appearance:
Occupation: Full-time baker, occasional hunter.
History/what you think we should know about your character: A frequently loud-mouthed young adult who lives life by the means of his ambitions. Ambitions which are often mustered by the foolish, or at least that's what his father had told him. Tristen may often be observed as a naive, reckless, ambitious and an imprudent individual at first glance, but in truth, he is a brave and bold young man who believes that there is a possibility in achieving what foolish men had dreamed. He would always refuse traversing through pavements of hopelessness and envision that conflicts and challenges in life are simply just pillars to one's dreams/goals. Overall, there is a positive bright side which he kept from time to time, and that side of him is what he often uses to withstand the harshness of life.
Having a natural talent in baking, Tristen wasn't entirely convinced of what was achieved by that talent as it wasn't originally what he wanted to do all of his life but he wouldn't say that he disliked it. Ever since he was in his pre-adolescence, he wanted to travel, go to different places--places which his eyes haven't yet set upon. Sadly, his obligations and the everyday discouragement he received from his father were often keeping him away. But it didn't stop Tristen from dreaming. In fact, every ounce of discouragement would fill his eagerness and determination to achieve what he wanted and knowing that only mere words would come out from his father's actions, Tristen wouldn't be as discouraged as expected to be.
Tristen was the only child of a woodworker named Zelfos Yalik and a seamstress by the name of Laris. At the age of 4, Tristen's mother died of illness during the winter season and it was the main reason why his father would often be seen drowning in mugs of ale or raising his harsh voice against his son. It was something they both couldn't prevent and looking through that meager fact had completely saddened them. Tristen, however, moved on from that incident and decided to live his life accordingly and somehow achieve something for the sake of his mother's death. His father, on the other hand, went to the worst measures. From developing an excessive drinking habit and intentionally discarding his woodworking duties, he now depends on what his son could earn from the likes of baking. More often, he would pressure his son to earn as much as he desired just to purchase a number of ale to fill his contentment. But Tristen wouldn't allow himself to be demanded for something worthless. He would still obey his father but only up to the point of his tolerance. One thing he solely wished was for his father to move on and if it wasn't difficult, Tristen would do anything to help.

I hope I'm not too late for this. If there's an available slot for a newcomer, I'd be happy to plug my character in! :D
oh crud, the IC started!
Anyway, I'll have my post later on.
Anyway, I'll have my post later on.
I'm waiting for that whiny teenager to come by (if possible). He/she will be a potential BFF to Vale.
It took me a while but here it is~
Name: Vale
Weapon: Various tools. Normally Vale prefers his fists over weapons but when it comes to dealing with The Infected, hand-to-hand combat wouldn't be necessary.
Estimated Age: Around 30-40 years old
Personality: Vale has a grim figure which prevents anyone from approaching him. It would mostly be for the reason of his dreadfully silent demeanor which everyone takes precaution of. But for the most part, a lot of people assume a person such as him is naturally bound to harmlessness, through which is only partially true. Others, who don't simply go through assumptions, are driven by fear from what this person is truly capable of.
It is a fact that Vale is a clever and strange individual. He is quite unpredictable at times due to the schemes he erratically shows. He was never the friendliest and mostly people don't understand what he does in life nor would they want to find out whatever his activities are. But once they get a picture of how Vale actually acts, they might regret on doing so. What people mostly don't know about Vale is that he is potentially demented. When alone, he sometimes speaks to himself audibly and would often be laughing involuntarily with maniacal tones adding up. For him, there is no reason behind this odd phase of behavior as he thinks it was a natural attachment to his own humanity.
Insanity is his main dish. This only occurs either when Vale is alone or generally having an unpleasant day. When one of them is present, Vale transitions into a much more malevolent version of himself. He'll practically level himself up to the higher peaks of madness to the point where he would be close at committing murder. However, there are times when Vale becomes exaggeratedly conscious about himself. He would reflect back to his actions which he believed to be unnecessary or inappropriate and would resort on preventive measures.
Brief Background: Vale was once an outsider before Barrowside accepted him for his decent scavenging skills, not to mention his cleverness to devise enter and escape routes outside the community's premises as he was quite familiar of the roads and a few other locations. No one knew where Vale originated much as how they were unbeknownst to his strange name. Some say he belonged to a murderous group of survivors and others say he spent his days surviving all by himself.He never told much about his story and people respected what he wished but they still remained curious. Others however, didn't want to be involved as they were flocked in fear by the man's ambiance.
Years before his days at the community, Vale belonged to a migrating group of survivors. There were families, old people and a few strong individuals such as himself. However, the group was never fortunate on their day-to-day survival goals. Every death of their members started with bad decision makings and eventually led themselves to near-death situations such as ending up at a place with swarming Infected. Vale was the member of that particular group who is eagerly determined to lead everyone at a place where they would call 'safe haven'. However, there was another bad decision-making which turned Vale into a sinister individual.
Vale was never favorable of his group's leader who often spends the last minute of disaster on saving his own skin. And right after the group went back on the road to search yet another place to survive, tensions rose between their leader and a woman who Vale often protected. There were arguments about the route they should follow and the group's majority had plans on following the longer and safer route while their leader chose the shorter but dangerous one. One night, the woman who argued with the leader went missing. Vale was the first one who took an immediate notice then soon followed by the rest of the group. They all started searching where she was but unfortunately, nothing was accomplished as sunrise came into view.
However Vale's suspicion about the disappearance of the woman had sharpened the moment he realized that the leader also vanished at that night and returned later on after the group carried out a search. The woman proved to have some attachments to Vale as her daughter was the one he was taking care of since she had an unyielding sickness of fever. Vale took questions, reluctant to just pass on without having a clear answer. A heated argument rose between them and after that, the leader admitted that he was involved with the woman's disappearance. Not only that, the worst news had come to Vale when the leader told him that he left the woman to her death as she was trapped into an abandoned church filled with the infected while she was on the search for their supposed safe route. The man's actions made Vale erupt into volatile grunts of anger and eventually killed the leader while they were away from the group. Vale haven't realized what he had done just after seeing the dead body.
Soon after, Vale took the lead, telling the unfortunate news that the leader took a grave accident and got himself killed. It was easy for him to convince everyone but taking a look back at his actions was a different story. Before taking their destined route, the group occupied a small barren village which seemed to have no presence of The infected at any corner. However, it was what they thought of after one member of the group found a particular house with a massive number of The infected trapped. After they were accidentally released, they gradually found the group and started to consume them rapidly. Vale managed to get his hands off the infected and tried to save at least some members of the group, but it was all too late as each and every one of them ended up as dinner. It happened late at night while everyone was asleep. Vale escaped from the village and the incident made him emotionally and physically unstable on the following days.
After a few months of surviving alone, Vale eventually found a community called 'Barrowside' which seemed to be the safe haven everyone from his group was talking about. He changed significantly after his escape but the unpleasant memories remained.
Misc: Vale heavily dislikes talking excessively.
As a scavenger for supplies, Vale developed superior tracking skills and knows the time when an Infected is nearby.
